Thierry Ennui Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 He learnt off Jim Smith that you always try and get quality in to improve the squad. Yeah, I'm so glad we didn't get one of those managers who purposefully bring in bad players. Very smart from the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CornwallRam Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I have it on very good authority that Nixon has several top notch sources - friends with chairmen, managers and scouts. He will also get information given to him by agents with agendas - trying to clinch a deal or engineer a move. So I'm 100% certain that Nixon does get a lot of good information. However, I think he overeaches himself sometimes amd tries to pretend that he knows everything and ends up just relaying stuff he's read on forums or tried to dedeuce from what appears logical.

cheron85 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Either that, or that is his deductions from the deals/enquiries we've been putting in.. e.g Big striker conclusion as drawn from the fact we've been linked with Necid, Castaignos and Deeney.. Yeeeehhhhhh but all of those were before we signed Bent... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i-Ram Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 @reluctantnicko @roweydcfc Still want to spend on a 'big' striker and an extra versatile body I am still wondering, hoping, that we might make a move for Cork at Soton. Doesn't seem like he will sign a new contract in June, and Soton seem interested in bringing Byram in from Leeds who is also out of contract come June. Might get Cork for a mil or two (if we have got it). Be a very versatile body would young Jack with still lots to prove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't we sign an agreement that if we went up he would join us for last season? Would be a good signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Sagan Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Nixon's generally right on these things but of course the club will do everything they can to dampen down any speculation whatsoever until a deal is signed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamNut Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Maybe chelsea said a deal wasn't possible and that ends our interest. Or maybe his wages are massive. Everton prob pay 100% whereas we would be looking for a subsidised deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralRam Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I'm sick of saying this. Nixon obviously knows people behind the scenes at a few clubs and knows what's happening. Atsu may not happen but all he's said is that we want him - he ain't telling no ******* bull ****. The bloke makes a living on this for god sake. The only 2 on Twitter I believe know their **** is John Percy and Nixon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
